Chapter 280 - Negative response... (1/2)

”Sir.... It's me, Diana Miller. You asked for me from Mrs. Brooks. May I come in sir?” Diana asked from the outside of the door..

”Yeah...come in.” Mr. Lopez said.

As soon as Diana entered, she bowed a little to show her respect towards him and asked, ”Sir, is something important that you have to call me just after you have reached here?”

Mr. Lopez looked at her and said, ”Yeah. I have something to ask you for. Sit down first.”

When Diana sat on the chair, Mr. Lopez continued, ”Actually, this Thursday is the engagement of my daughter's best friend, Lucinda. She is also like a daughter to me as she grew up with my princess from their childhood...

But her engagement had been fixed very suddenly, so she hadn't prepared any dress. So my daughter requested me to ask you if you can design Lucy's engagement dress. You don't have to worry about anything. You just have to ask my assistant whatever you want, he will send all those things to you...

Just make the dress please. It's my daughter's request for my another daughter's special day. You don't need to worry about the upcoming project, you can give your work to your teammates. You just focus on this..”

Diana just stared at  Mr. Lopez for few minutes without saying anything like she was thinking over something really hard which led Mr. Lopez to think that it must be a negative response from her side which would make everyone sad which he didn't want.

So he said, ”Diana... Think over about this once. I know that you already have many things on your shoulder but if the occasion is not so much important I would not pressurise you this much.”

Hearing this, Diana came out of her trance and smiled at Mr. Lopez before saying, ”No sir... I'm not going to decline the offer. I don't have much work at my home so I can leisurely design something really good for your daughter's friend...

It's actually that I was watching your love for your daughter. I can see the happiness in your eyes when you talk about her.”

Mr. Lopez smiled and said, ”Yes, I love my daughter very much. She is my pride, my little princess. She is the perfect daughter anyone could ever get. I'm so blessed to have this little angel as my daughter who brightened our lives like some shining star.”

Diana felt extremely emotional remembering her father who also loved her very much but was no more, so she said, ”Your daughter is also very lucky to get you as her father. However, I need tge proportion to make a dress.”

”Oh.. You don't have to worry about that. I'll call my princess to bring Lucinda here. Is after lunchtime okay for you?” Mr. Lopez asked.

”Perfectly okay, Sir. Then I'm going to take my leave as I have to hand my works to others for these four days.” Diana said.

Mr. Lopez nodded and said, ”Thanks Diana for your help. Oh, I called you by your name. Is it okay to call you Diana instead of Ms. Miller as you are my daughter's age?”

”Sure sir. I would be glad if you call me Diana as you are also same like my father.” Diana said and left the office...
